{Begin}
Swiftly, his hands move with mechanical precision
An element changes, the path switches
{Adjust}
Heel, ball, toe, heel, ball, toe
Collisions with the track cause a lost balance
{React}
Rocket forward, then flip to redo
Pull the lever, and a world opens behind the closed door
{Respond}
A whirlwind of vivacity
Quick long bounds on a short road
{Decide}
Fall down or up?
Dash left or right?
{Reverse}
Wrong side up, floating mid-speculation
His pounding heart and sweaty palms collide with little impetus
{Rush}
Almost home, past the swimming stars and dimming skies and blinding lights
The moon in anxious abeyance, the sun in supercilious apprehension
{Stimulate}
Energy, motion, and adrenaline join hands and strengthen
Pushing him forwards, spiraling towards the gate
{Concentrate}
Intense colors of contorted sounds and staggered flashes
His foot hits ragged stairs that have been touched only by the subconscious
{Connect}
His feet still running and the background churning around him
His metal fingers swipe the white-hot ice of an exit
{Endure}
Abruptly grasping the handle to life
It turns and he is plunged into a perplexing cataclysym
{Reform}
His was the wrong choice, and his mistake could be severe
Perhaps, though, there was a way to salvage his gaffe
{Restart}

- I feel like you tried a little too hard to use long, uncommon words, but other then that, I like it.
